Good day today! Despite the fact that the baby decided 4am was morning time and spent the next two hours just cooing and looking around. I still got a lot done this afternoon and something I’ve been really anxiously waiting for did arrive today so I am just happy. And look how peacefully he’s sleeping. Isn’t he so sweet?
Those eyes still look blue to me! And here’s poor David who’s been caughing and just feeling crabby for days now. Poor little boy.
Happy hump day!

Another day at home with two. David was caughing so much last night and this morning that even Jake said we shouldn’t send him to school. So home, he stays. Here he is telling the baby how much he loves him. He’s my sunshine.
And here he is being all cool with his cool glasses. He even asked me to take this photo.
And here’s the daily Nataniel. Another one of my sunshines.
And, of course, the tulip.
So far, no the most productive day but let’s see how the afternoon is.

Doesn’t he look so peaceful? Well, we’re still on the cry, eat, sleep schedule. And now boy #1 is also home since he’s got pinkeye.
Yum.

Catalyst Sixty-Two is: What’s a personality trait you admire/seek in others? Why?.
Here are my words:
The trait I admire most in others is what I call “being comfortable in your skin.” I have a few friends who are just like that. They know who they are and they are comfortable with themselves. It’s not confidence as much as just a level of self-comfort. When I hang out with them, I always find myself wishing I were like that too. It’s something I am working on: loving myself the way I am.

David’s getting pretty clever about the photo taking lately. Making cute and funny faces so he can have some fun with me. He’s being so nice to everyone and he tells us ten times a day how much he loves us and how much he loves the baby. He’s just the nicest kid ever. I feel so so lucky.
Aurelia, on the other hand, has been going through what I think is a growth spurt. All he does is eat, cry and sleep. If he’s not eating or sleeping, he’s pretty much crying. I feel bad for him and I am pretty tired too so I hope it’s not going to last too long.
He still looks so so cute, doesn’t he?

Here’s David after a long nap from which he didn’t want to wake up. Not a happy camper.
Not the best day. Aurelia decided not to sleep much after 2:30am so I’ve been up all night and all day and I couldn’t sleep when he did finally fall asleep so I am dead tired. I think he’s having a growth spurt cause he will not stop nursing all day either. Well, tomorrow is another day 🙂
Happy Saturday to you.

I know it’s a terrible photo but I love the feeling in it so it stays.
Productive day! yey! I got some errands done and then went to work to have lunch with my friend Cole. I saw about a million people which made it hard to chat with Cole but it was great to see everyone. I stayed a bit longer than I should have though and Aurelia was really hungry by the time we got home. I even bought moving boxes. Yey me.
Here’s how I found David at school today. He had some boo-boos. But he’s so so cute. And here’s the little one, sleeping peacefully.

Feeling a little low today. Not really sure why. Nothing bad actually happened and I am not even low on sleep. Just feeling worn out maybe? I keep thinking of bad things over and over for some reason. Like I keep thinking something terrible is going to happen. Maybe it’s cause everything has been so great and I am worried something will happen to offset it. Who knows. I hope it will go away.
Here’s David at school. Much better today. One of those days where you know he’s going to come home all messy with paint everywhere.
Hope you’re having a good week!

Here’s David from school this morning. He was feeling a bit sick I think cause he got very upset after I left and ran out of class twice to give me hugs and asked me to go back and be with him. I am hoping he’s not getting sick because it would be a major bummer right now.
And here’s Aurelia. See those beautiful eyes? I wonder if they will stay blue. What do you think?

I am trying to establish some sitting areas in each room. So the living room is for computer and TV and has this little boppy for the baby so he can sit, too. Here’s one of those rare moments where he did like it. The playroom has scrapbooking and another little seat for Aurelia. And the bedroom is for reading. This way I don’t spend all day in the same room (or bed.)
Today was a bit challenging for us. Aurelia just cried the whole time he was awake and I was trying to not get him to sleep too much so we fought back and forth since all he wanted to do was nurse and sleep. I hope he will sleep tonight.
He is so so beautiful though and I love him so so so much.
And of course, here’s the other one who is also manificent and he’s playing with a teaset with me right now as Natheniel sleeps (of course!) I love my boys so so much!

Here are the beautiful tulips Jake brought home. Pink and white. So so pretty.
And here’s David’s third teacher. Teacher Melissa. She’s so so sweet!
And the little boy who won’t sleep from 4am to 7am is sound asleep when I take him to school. Just not when it’s 4am.
Happy Monday!

Catalyst sixty-one is: Tell us about something that you always put off doing. Why?
Here are my words:
Despite the fact that I like clean and tidy houses, it’s the one thing I always and always put off. I wish I were tidier. I wish I had one of those perfect houses that look so organized and tidy. I don’t think it’s in the cards for me.
